Is it better to buy a diamond pendant for a necklace, anklet, or bracelet?

Should I get a diamond pendant for my bracelet, anklet or necklace? What would look best? Can I even add diamond pendants to fragile jewelry such as anklets? Or do I need a heavier chain?

Diamond pendants, or charms, are complimentary no mater where you dangle them from. This questions is more an issue of lifestyle and jewelery wearing habits. If you are not used to wearing anklets or bracelets, they can be rather cumbersome and uncomfortable. Anklets are something that specifically cannot be worn all the times since in cold weather one wears long pants and closed shoes so that ankles just aren't seen. Anyone who runs, climbs or even bikes frequently runs the risk of ruining or even losing their anklet. I'd recommend an diamond anklet  pendant for someone who leads a more laid back lifestyle and spends most of their time in a warm climate. This will allow them to show it off and enjoy it. A diamond bracelet pendant is good for those who don't work as much with their hands and don't risk the charm interfering with their handiwork. Diamond bracelet pendants are also good for special occasions since they can be taken on and off. A diamond pendant for a necklace, in my opinion, is always a good option. The wearer can chose the length of the chain, the strength of the chain and it doesn't have to get in ones way. Plus,diamond necklace pendants can be masculine or feminine, they can be glitzy or subtle, they can be classic or modern, elegant or loud. So, in the end I'd say they can all be great options, it just depends on the character and lifestyle of the wearer. This is, for your information, the beauty of diaomnd pendants. In the end, they can be worn on any chain and with any outfit.

I think it really depends on the style of the diamond pendant. If you have a really large diamond pendant, then you should hang it from a necklace, simply due to the weight and comfort. However, if you have a small diamond pendant, you could hang it from wherever you like. In my opinion charm bracelets are great, and hanging a small pendant from a charm bracelet can look really cool. Anklets and diamond pendants don't go as well. It's easy to loose the, easy to damage them, and hard to see them. The way I see it, the only reason to put a pendant on an anklet is if the diamond pendant really sparkles or makes a jingly noise. Otherwise, the wrist or the neck are better places for a diamond pendant.
